Given the longitude, latitude and altitude of two points, plus
the day of the year, is there an easy and straightforward
way to find which one will see the sun first?

Let's say we have place "X" at 8 S 34 W altitude 200m and
place Y at 22S 42 W, altitude 1000m.

It is winter Solstice in the North Hemisphere.

Supposing there is a sundial at each place, which one
will mark the hour first?
